Mentor Skill

[Emopanther]

What y'all think of it? It's a neat 'lil thing, and just something else to dump skill points into for heroes XD But it works pretty well for the legendary lord since you use it all the time.

It's fine

LL should have plenty of things to actually use points
heros already level fast enough
especially since im pretty sure they are still stuck leveling one at a time
its a point sink if everythings filled, thats nice but thats also all it is

I think its quite neat as a usefull skill dump.
In my recent Kislev campaign i have hired Gotrek and Felix, since they can not earn xp they seem to give xp to other generals after battle, so like the mentor skill would, and now the game wants me to spend my atamans skillpoints but since you don´t have access to their charakter screen i can´t do that and if i would recuit them to spend the points i can´t make them atamans again. Pretty sure the same would happen with just the mentor skill too.

I won't pick it on most LLs. Lords maybe, probably at 48,49 and 50.

Kind of feel like it being locked to level 30/40/50 defeats the point, to a degree.

E.g. if a Hero has no *meaningful* skill point choices after Level 25 or so (e.g most Casters), then I'd far, far prefer to be able to put those skill points into Mentor and put that XP elsewhere. Instead, you've got to level all the way up to extremely high levels to get any worth out of it, which is the opposite of what I want to be doing.

I'd like to see them try it so that all three levels unlock at Level 30, and see how that goes.

spare points dump for hero's. Lords typically don't run out of points, most often your left wanting a few more for extra bonuses.

How does this mentor skill work exactly? Does it still work when your hero/lord skill points are capped? Like they can't get XP for themselves anymore but can still gain XP that they share to others?
And more in general, does it "steal" XP from your lord? Or does it "duplicate" part of their XP gain and gives the duplicate to other lords/heroes?
